General Meeting

March 11, 2008


The Women of Flower Mound met on March 11, 2008 at Salerno’s. President Wendy Trayler called the meeting to order at approximately 7:00 PM.  Wendy welcomed those attending, and introduced 6 guests.   Lifetime members were introduced.  The Sunshine Committee requested continued prayer for Sylvia Imboden’s daughter. The treasurer’s report was available on the various tables for review.  A motion was made to accept the report;  Susan Coates moved to approve, and Carol Anne Crossan seconded.  Wendy advised that several positions on the 2008/2009 Board are available, and asked members to consider serving on the Board for next year. 

Susan Coates presented the program for this evening, a delightful style show featuring new looks for spring and proms, with fashions from Belk’s Department Store.  Following the program, Wendy announced that the theme for the 2009 Fashion Show will be “Paris in the Springtime.”  Split-the-pot went to Tracy Woods and a local elementary school.  Prizes were also awarded to guest June Caviness  and member Kelly Fehrs.  Recipient of a Dooney & Burke handbag door prize from Belk’s was Kenda Nelson.  Kenda donated the bag back to the organization to be used in next year’s silent auction fund raiser. 

Members were reminded that the deadline for scholarship entries is April 1, according the committee chairman Andrea Deeley. With all business and program concluded, the meeting was adjourned at approximately 8:30 PM.                                                            

Respectfully submitted, 
Cheryl Gist, Secretary
